The staff was incredible here, very helpful and even left a to-go breakfast for us since we left for our early train before the service was available! Excellent location within the city that is walkable to all the key sights. I was delightfully surprised they even cooked breakfast for you instead of having eggs out in a chafing dish. Would recommend and visit again.

What a lovely property. We visited in January and although it was too cold for the pool, we sat on the lawn chairs at night to see the stars. The room was lovely and clean and the staff was fantastic. This place is a real gem!

Great little guesthouse

Lovely stay at the guesthouse. The staff are absolutely brilliant and a testament to the hotel, they could not be more accommodating to us. It was a lovely hotel to stay in. The only slight downside for us was that noise seemed to carry into our room from the dining area and kitchen. We were situated directly opposite from this area but nonetheless it was only a small matter that we could cope with. All in all, it was a great stay for us, in a great location and I would definitely recommend to others.

An amazing stay with really tentative staff. A couple of mishaps with the hotel which were dealt with efficiently by staff. Great location with the castle, restaurants and parking nearby. Special mention to Debora who was knowledgable about the location and even recommended some restaurants which were great!
